SARS: Police Demotes Dolapo Badmus, Shogunle, Dismiss Others Over Misconduct (Full List)

Dolapo Badmus, a former Police Public Relations Officer, Lagos State Command, Abayomi Shogunle, a former Head of the Public Complaint Rapid Response Unit (PCRRU), and some members of the disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) have been dismissed and demoted for misconducts.

This is coming in the wake of protests against SARS brutality and the public outcries for police reform.

Names and service numbers of those sanctioned became public on Saturday, in tweets by Ayo Akanji, a member of President Muhammadu Buhari’s media team.

His tweet read "37 former members of the disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Squad have been pencilled down for dismissal from service. The Police Service Commission is also expected to order the prosecution of 24 other ex-SARS operatives for various acts of misconduct."

According to Akanji, the list includes the dismissed reprimanded and the demoted officers.

Badmus and Shogunle were reprimanded and demoted.

Not to be misunderstood, my thread on police administrative action includes dismissed, reprimanded & demoted officers. Abayomi Shogunle & Dolapo Badmus are amongst reprimanded and demoted officers.

Most of the officers were dismissed in response to #EndSARS. https://t.co/LlUSXfMmlR
